Sandbox technology based webpage browsing method and device

Abstract

The disclosure includes a sandbox technology based webpage browsing method and device. A method comprises receiving an instruction for webpage browsing in a sandbox. Upon receiving the instruction, a framework process is started outside the sandbox to process an operation incurred in the framework process outside the sandbox, wherein the framework process is a first part implemented by a browser. A browser process created by the framework process is intercepted, wherein the browser process is a second part implemented by the browser. The browser process is put into the sandbox to save a webpage access result in a specified directory in the sandbox or to run a script in the webpage in a virtual environment of the sandbox.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

Ensures user operation convenience and security by allowing local saving of browser modifications and isolating malicious scripts within the sandbox, while maintaining system safety.

Problems solved by technology

The use of such a technology improves the security of a user's system, but at the same time also brings about some limitations.

For example, the user may sometimes need to actually download a file on the internet by way of a browser, at this point, the file can only be downloaded to a virtual directory due to limitations of the sandbox, and after the browser program exits, the sandbox will delete these temporary files, causing that a file cannot be saved permanently.

Or, sometimes the user needs to adjust some settings of the browser, a modification of these settings will result in a modification of the registry information, and at this point, these modifications will not be successfully saved due to the limitations of the sandbox.
